Wesley had surgery today for a dental issue. Being so young, he wasn't able to be still enough to perform the procedure safely in the office, so he had to go to the hospital and be put to sleep under anesthesia and the whole nine yards. The waking up from anesthesia went a lot smoother this time than it did when he had his tubes placed in October. We think it is partly because they gave him a medication (Versed) to help him relax and partially because they let him sleep until he woke up on his own. Regardless, he was still a sleepy little guy and his whole day was "off." Fortunately the procedure went well and quickly and without complications. Whew!
Since he had to have soft food, we treated him to an ice cream cone. We let him eat it outside and not worry about the mess. After his frosty treat, he went straight into the bath and then it was time for bed. The poor little guy was so tired he fell asleep in my arms.
